Dunia Bilang

Dunia bilang

Tenang, tidak usah rindu.

Lihatlah sekelilingmu.

Lihat keluargamu,

Lihat saudaramu,

Lihat kakek-nenek mu,

Lihat orang-orang yang ada bersamamu.

Bukankah kau sudah miliki apa yang selama ini

selalu semua orang cari?


Dunia bilang

Tenang, tidak usah sendu.

Lihatlah sekelilingmu.

Lihat rumahmu,

kamar tidurmu,

kamar mandimu,

bahkan lihat pada kacamu.

Bukankah kau sudah punya apa

yang orang lain selalu ingin miliki?


Dunia bilang,

Tenang, tidak usah risau.

Kita tarik nafas sebentar ya.


Belajar pelan dalam kehidupan,


Coba nikmati hari tanpa kesibukan diri.


Coba belajar cinta tanpa prasangka,

coba belajar sayang apa adanya,

Coba belajar usaha yang disertai dengan doa.


Dunia bilang

Tenang, kamu tidak sendiri.

Kamu pasti bisa lalui ini,


Karena Aku akan selalu ada disini.


Menyertaimu di setiap langkah kaki,

Menyayangimu di dalam hati, dan

Mencintaimu di setiap hari.

The Family Who Read

         I was raised in a family who appreciate reading. It’s all started way back when we were young. We grew up reading comic books, our parents often gave us books as our “naik kelas”’s gifts. So we ended up looking forward to books. I remember the feeling when we were anxiously waiting for our packs of books to open, couldn’t wait to read it as we already waiting for it for a long time. And as a continuation of that, by the time we were a teenager, we expand our liking to novels, and our house filled with fantasy books such as “Eragon”, “The Bartimaeus Trilogy” by Jonathan Stroud, books written by Cornelia Funke, “Maximum Ride” by James Patterson and the likes which supplied by our mother. So myself in particular found solace and curiousity in fantasy books.           So then we developed our love for books. Growing up, each of us found our own genre, as my brother likes “Haruki Murakami”, me and my father...

Label-free

I mentioned sixth sense in one of my previous post, the “What Should I do” one. True, I stated that the longer we know someone, we’ll develop some kind of sixth sense that’ll help us “communicate” with them. A wordless communication, so to say. That mind reader, gesture-talk kind of things. But I must say that that telepathy is a double edged sword. Why? Because it has its own downside. Opinion. Allow me to quote another saying of Haemin Sunim : “when we think we already know someone, we stop making effort to know them better. Consider when you think you already know your loved ones and when you do, you are failing to see them as they are right now, you see them through the prism of previously held opinions , instead.” Those words quoted from his “Love for Imperfect Things” book, and again, I could not believe how true it is. That “prism of previously held opinions” have an immense power to destroy our relationships because we instantly judge people. We did it in a heart...

Fly

You can still fly when your wings are clipped, right? Yes, it might be hard. And yes, you will stumble, oh you will even fall. But that doesn’t mean you can’t. It just means that you have to find some other ways to fly. So I watch “The Unbreakable Boy” yesterday and the movie brought me to tears. Such unbelievably good children with great parent. The movie is bare, very full of trust; vulnerabilities, strengths, and heart warming emotions that is very beautifully portrayed throughout of it. It’s from the same director Auggie in “Wonder” but in this one, the main character is Auzman. Auzman is a little kid with OI (Osteogenesis Imperfecta) and autism. And being a little kid, he sometimes wants to be as strong as his brother but his bones never allowed him to do so. So over the years, he become strong on something else instead. He become the mascott of his school. Someone that brings joy and light to everybody he passes by. Auzman sees the best in everyone, even the school bully. He shin...
